Dashboard.earth works with trusted local partners to crowdsource climate actions that are restorative for the people and places they serve.

DASHBOARD.EARTH

Our Impact

  • Architected, designed, and prototyped key features for a strategic pilot which helps to secure the next round of funding

  • Collaborated with founder and product manager to bring personalization and moments of delight to the application experience

Dashboard.earth team came to us with a challenge to make it easy for users to take easy climate actions in the context of their partner programs (example: teaching citizens how to plant and care for a tree as part of the Tree People Tree Planting initiative)

Information architecture & User flow mapping

We started with a hypothesis: Users will be more likely to take climate actions (in this case: to plant a tree), if they can get social validation from their friends, neighbors, and other users. They will also be more likely to take this action if they have a personal connection to the tree itself.

From this hypothesis and in working closely with the founding/product team, we map out a potential user path from the moment a user received a young tree, to the moment of planting, naming, caring, and getting social validation for this beautiful act.

Competitive analysis

Learning from both direct and indirect competitors, specifically tied to user stories and requirements.

Design & Prototype

We explored logo options and designed screens following the intended user flow and architecture. Example of collaboration: During the ideation and iteration process, we introduced ideas to personalize the object (naming the tree Babe in the example below), therefore developing a relationship between the user and the care object.
